Wonderful House
We had a wonderful stay at this house..It was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It was very secure on the Island. We will stay longer next time.
Amazing place: clean , exceptionally well equipped in a secure , clean and lovely area.
Would highly recommend
Communication brilliant : made my birthday extra special thank you
We visited Knysna from the UK for a 4 week break to visit family and one of our stops was the Thesen Island Holiday House. I have stayed at many places through my travels and can say with confidence that Estelle gave us world class service and the stay was unforgettable. The house is immaculate and in pristine condition.
I would highly recommend anyone looking for a hassle free holiday in one of the best locations in Knysna to book at Thesen Island Holiday House. Estelle will go out of her way to ensure everything is perfect and exceed your expectations!
